AuANDY POCKET ATLAS.

An attempt to put in pocket size the
contents of large reference Atlas Is
usually accompanied by rough, inaccurate,
and inelegant engraving and printing, but
in the New Pocket Atlas OF the World,
published by Ivison, Brakeman & Co., 1853
& 755 Broadway, NY, this is not the fact.
Ninety-one Maps containing nearly every
geographical point OF interest throughout
the world, are gwen, and each Is gem OF
the engrsver's art. Delicstely yet dls-
tinctly colored, these maps are exquisite
illustrations OF the best color printing to-
day obtsinable. While the Map leaves
nothing to he desired by way OF fullness.
they are fully up to date, and show every
recent discovery, or change of boundary.
One hundred and twelve pages of terse,
well arranged, and accurate information
concerning every important country or
stale on the globe, follow the maps in this
compact volume. In fact, the hook is not
only comprehensive Atlas, but also n
condensed Gazetteer OF the whole world
and all put in an attractive and substan-
tial binding, and sold for fifty cents. II

HalIow E'en.-The usual barbarous
practices of hallow cen were indulged
in by boys of various sizes and ages on
Monday night. Gates, fences, sidewalks
etc were displaced, and even went so far
as to displace four or five tomb stones in
the Cemetery. The names of twelve of
those engaged in such disgraceful prac-
tices were secured and brought before
the Mayor, ard four of the number were
assessed $4.20 each and given AZ hours
in the lookup. II parents were so disl O.
ed they could, better than any ore el e,
stop all such work by giving their boys
to understand that hallow cen, as well
as many other nights in the year, were
their nights in" instead of nights out"
But parents are apt to say that their
boys are no worse than other boys and
thus encourage them in deeds of law
lessness to the detriment of the child
and good order of the community. If
parents will train their children to dis
tinguish right from wrong and then
keep them from getting a street educa-
ton, they can then set up the claim
that their boys are "better than other
boys" instead of mo worse than other
boys" This would save the credit of
the parent as well as much mental su -
ftrlng, and save the boy for a useful
citizen instead of loafer and tramp to
depredate upon the community in which
they live and should have respect for.
If the boy has got beyond the control of
the parents there is an excellent State
institution provided by the taxpayers of
the State. for the welfare of the people
at large, where such are educated and
trained to be useful citizens.
